Tchao Li
She came when we were having a rest
near a fire after intensive meditative work.
Consisting of Light-Tenderness, in traditional
Chinese clothes, with a gentle smile — She bathed us
in Her soft, dissolving Love…
“What is Your name?”
“Tchao Li.”
“Could You tell us please about
Yourself? We see that You surely attained the
Divinity…”
“Well…
“Into My last incarnation in Korea,
I came as a mature soul with rich experience of
subtle states of consciousness from the past lives.
I could stay in soft calm, was capable of thinking
creatively, learned to live for others and sacrifice
Myself for other’s sake. I could see and appreciate
the beauty, merge with the harmony of nature and
dissolve with the consciousness in its purity. I
missed only the knowledge about God: about His
Beingness. Also I missed the methods of development
of oneself as a consciousness, which can help one to
achieve the complete Self-Realization and then to
help other people more efficiently.
“And God took care about Me: I met
My future husband and spiritual instructor Kim.
“This meeting happened later in My
life, but in the beginning…
“… I began to dance since the early
childhood, after I had barely learned to walk. Our
family had a small garden. Quietness and
communion with birds, flowers, and trees attracted
Me much more than contacts with other children. For
hours I could look and listen to what flowers or
birds say, watch fishes swimming in the transparent
water of our small pond. I understood and
loved them, and tried to talk to them without words,
expressing My love for them with the help of
gestures and other movements. And every time a new
dance was born…
“For example, I felt Myself a
flower: My trunk was a lithe stem, My arms were
leaves, and the corolla of the flower was always
inside My chest. I began to move the trunk-stem, to
caress with arms-leaves the sun, the sky, the space
around Me… Bliss flowed through My body. I forgot
about everything and danced, radiating love to all
My friends!
“When I grew a little older, My
parents sent Me to a school in a Buddhist monastery
where they taught the art of dance.
“Studying was easy and joyful to Me:
dance had become My life already. I just polished My
skills, bringing every movement, every gesture to
the perfection.
“We were taught that the most
important thing is to convey the emotional state;
this constitutes the essence of dance. My
improvisations from the childhood were very useful
for this purpose.
“The dance of oriole, the dance of
crane, the dance of nightingale singing in spring… —
I danced and forgot about all the rest; there were
only the oriole, only the crane, only the
nightingale — and there was My love, which I gave
through the dance… When dancing, I as if sang
soundlessly with the soul — My heart sounded with
different shades of love!
“… From outside it looked very nice:
people enjoyed and admired Me dancing…
“Yet, I had a strange feeling of
inner dissatisfaction…
“Later I understood that in this age
I could not convey to the spectators the entirety of
love: I missed the shades of that tenderness which
can be known only by people who are in love with
each other… My love was not mature then…
“… In that School we received an
all-round education; we studied philosophy,
religion, history, and other subjects. Let Me stress
that this is extremely important!
“But the main thing for Me was an
acquaintance with the Teachings of Buddha.
Consciously I discovered for Myself a new Divine
world. It was the world of Light and Love! I
learned the laws that Buddha followed in His life
and commanded us to follow: the laws of purity of
life: compassion, benevolence, truthfulness,
kindness, love. I followed these laws in everything
I did.
“Then I came to know the love of man
— with Him Who, too, could give Himself.
“Kim became My husband and My
spiritual guide into the Abode of the Primordial
Consciousness. He helped Me to master meditative
methods, gave Me His power and love. And I gave Him
tenderness, embraced Him with calm and caress. Full
harmony of Our relationships helped Us both in
advancement on the spiritual Path. The ecstasy of
merging of souls, the bliss of giving tenderness to
each other, the joy of giving oneself — without such
valuable experience, love cannot gain all its power
and fullness!
“And My dance became now a means of
expressing My love for the Primordial One!…
“… In modern times, I help to
restore in Korea the ancient art of dance. I help
those who want to give themselves, to give their
love to others. Only such an aspiration can
bring man to the Perfection, to the Mergence in Love
with the Divine Beloved!”
